Prospective Heiress OF $50, 900, 900.

A bright-eyed little girl, with pretty
face, pranced through one of the
halls of the Windsor this morn
ing, with nurse following closely Oh
her trail. A number of other bright
looking little children who saw her
pass regarded her with considerable
more than casual interest. Still there
was nothing remarkable in the little
tots appearance. When handsome
6-vear-old boy said to his little sister,
There goes the heiress, as he pointed
to the girl, he explained the reason of
her unusual interest. The child had
only been in the hotel two days. but all
the children in the hostelry had been
told that she was one of the richest
children in the world The little girl
is the only child of Senor Jose Hidalgo,
one of the wealthiest citizens of Cuba.
Aside from the fathers wealth the
child is heir to over $10,000,000. This
will go to her st the death of her
grandmother, Senor Hidalgo's mother.
The grandfather was one. of the
wealthiest planters and cigar manu-
facturers in Cuba, and left an estate
worth nearly $20,000,000, which was
divided between his wife and only son.
The son has more tnan doubled his
portion since the death of his father,
so that at the present time the little
girl is prospective heir to over $50, 900 !.

"Swear Him In"


A good story is told of Editor Frank
Hatton, who is to have a New York
newspaper, as was first told exclusive
ly in the Sun. When he was 16
years old his father published country
newspaper in Iowa. Frank set up the
editorials, which for days and DAYS to-
getner in the spring of 81 were headed
with such stirring appeals as ITO
Arms!' ''To the Front?' and "En
Avanti At last Frank took it into his
head that the editorials might be meant
for him, too. So he run away to Des
Moines TO enlist. For three davs he
had waded through mud and rain, and
when the recruiting officer said he was
too young to enlist without the consent
of his father, he was glad, for he
wanted to go home and get dry. In
stead of sending word Tor his return,
however, the country editor had the
courage of his convictions, and wired
back; Swear him in" And he was
sworn in, and served four years gal
lantly.-NeaO York Sun.

A Gigantic Saurian.

In the geological hall of the museum
OF natural history, Central park, there
is upon one of the shelves an object
about five feet aud half in length,
extremely bulky, and weighing so
many pounds that two men find it all
they desire to carry. 1t is of a brown
hue and might be taken for the trunk
OF fossil tree or part of a huge
branch. At its side lies small white
bone four or five inches long, with
label to the effect that it is the CORES
ponding bone of living crocodile.
In fact, the great brown mass, as
bulky as large man stretched at full
length, is the thigh or hip bone of an
American giant, which in former wears
roamed the great cretaceous sea of the
west. The largest crocodile of to-day
is about twenty feet in length, and its
thigh bone four or five inches. If the
thigh bone of the Atlantosaurus, of
which this is part, be six feet long
and Prof. Marsh has discovered one
eight feet in iengtb-how long must
its possessor have been? This is an
example in proportion which will adj
nit of widely different answers per-
haps; but while my readers are guess
ing | viii say that geologists believe
these giants to have attained length
of from eight to one hundred and
twenty feet. While they have been
likened to crocodiles they differ en-
tirely from them in appearance, hav-
ing long legs, an attenuated tail and
neck, and small head-giants of
wonderful structure, living in the
shallow waters of the great seas Of
the time, floating, perhaps, or an-
chored by their prodigious feet and
tail
These colossal saurians were a COM
mon feature of the life in the Jurassic
days, when a vast sea covered Kansas
and most of the western States Vide

The Legend OF the "White Woman

The latest measurement makes
Popocatepetl little more than $4,000
feet in hight, one of the mightest in
that ''burning girdle" which surrounds
the Pacific. Its twin, Iztaccihuatl, is
5000 feet lower-a long, uneven ridge,
instead of cone, but, being that much
nearer the limits of vision, looks the
greater of the two from the valley.
Facing eastward, Iztaccihuatl-la
Muier Blanca, or ''The White Woman"
is really suggestive, by its shape, of
a dead giantess robed for burial. Far
and near this long extinct volcano is
known as 1.-The White Woman" and
from the City of Mexico, as from tie
plains of Ameca-Meca, the resemb-
lance is the same, to a dead woman
stretched out on her bier, covered with
a white sheet. The contour of face,
breast. and limbs is perfect, and the
hair is streamed in long, silvery locks
back from the snowy forehead and
down the sides of the bier. The feet
are turned toward her companion
giant, and between the two lies brown
and treeless ridge.
There is a tradition among the
Uhlb lilCSC lNO NOlCduOCS NclG
once, in the early years of the world,
living human beings, both of gigantic
stature. Unfortunately for the
colossal pair, they committed some
misdemeanor which so offended the
Supreme Deity that He changed them
into mountains. He struck the giant
ess dead, and there she lies to this day,
robed in glistening white, stretched
beneath winding-sheet OF snow.
The giant was merely rooted fast to
the spot, condemned through all the
slow centuries to contemplate his
loved companion. Formerly he was
wont to express his grief and indigna-
ton by pouring forth volumes of
smoke and shedding floods of fiery
lava tears, shaking the whole earth in
the agony of his tremblings. Then the
affrighted natives worshiped him as
Tialoe, the God of Storms, and called
him Popocatepetl ("Hill That
Smokes.") But all this was long ago;
and for hundreds of years the giant
has remained impassive, apparently
resigned to his doom.-Nericas Letter.
